You might notice the cars are said to share some similarities. Might be only the "C"-car designation in cases past 1970- but he was asking about a '70 Cad, and these cars share the C-car body designation and up till '70 they are similar. The later bodies might not share the front suspension, so be it. Hopefully he can tell the difference between what he has and what he's looking at.
